^^Awww, those are really sweet stories. I know it's probably it a little lame or cliche, but Bouncin Round the Room is what my BF always plays for me (don't think he'll ever try to sing to me, lol). I'm sure I don't need to explain, but it's totally our song, and will definitely be at our wedding
There really isnt a crazy amount of talking during Gamehendge. Its really more the grouping of the songs that makes it a gamhendge suite, yes there is some narration but its really just about the songs played together. Heres a nice SBD from 91
^^It's been mentioned a little bit here and there. I think it's a small chance at best... although I certainly wouldn't mind!
I just find it hard to believe that, after the heckling the Flaming Lips got for talking a lot about politics and things relevant to the world today, that Roo is the best place for Trey to go on rants about a fictitious world called Gamehenge inbetween songs.
I would, however, absolutely love a Gamehenge in Knoxville! ;D
Also, there's a difference between telling a story inbetween songs that ties the set together, and hearing some idiot ramble on about how much he hates Bush and how Obama rulez! and sh*t. If Wayne was telling a story that weaved together all the songs from Yoshimi or something, I bet people wouldn't be upset.
hmmm....maybe it's because Bush is the worst president we've ever had?!? Wayne didn't say one thing about Obama. He told people to vote for someone better than Bush in the next election and made a short statement against a bulls h i t war based on lies that's been going on for 6 years now. Tens of thousands of innocent civilian fatalities vs. less than ten minutes of your time at a MUSIC FESTIVAL. Boo quackin hoo is all I gotta say.

This Bonnaroo lineup is in dire need of some Rush.

I wouldn't want them to play Gamehendge at Roo. It would send all the n00bs and haters off to talk about how all Trey did was ramble and talk about weirdish.
and what's the problem with that? let all the haters and noobs walk away complaining. that leaves more room for the people who would really enjoy seeing something epic like that. I doubt they'll play it but it would be cool.
You shouldn't worry about others are thinking about a show......you should be worrying about what you think about a show.
Don't think there is anything wrong with hoping that my favorite band in the entire world wins over some people and melts some faces at Bonnaroo.
^ I will be a Phish newbie @ Roo and it is very sweet of you to think of me and hope your favorite band wins me over!
I don't care what they play....I am just excited to see something new and exciting! Oh, and I like it when bands talk to the crowd so if the do Gamehenge, I'm game.

Awesome. I think a lot of 'n00bs' would like Gamehendge. I mean, there's a reason all us old crusty Phish vets like it, right?
This has come up I think 2 -3 times already in this thread. My feeling is still the same not a chance. Trey likes to do Gamehenge when he has a quiet respectful crowd in a smaller type venue all of which will not be Bonnaroo.
I don't care what you say about me, just spell my name right---P.T. Barnum "As I was walking up the stairs I met a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today I wish to God he'd go away."
Has anyone discussed the idea of them doing something impromptu and off of the schedule. Sorta like the tower jam from IT? I could seem them surprising everyone on Thursday or something of that nature. I just really think that while Phish has been gone and Bonnaroo has grown into existence, the fellas have obviously fallen in love with the fest. They have all been here before multiple times and I just have to believe they will be doing something more than a late night headlining set to show why they are still the jam kings.
Also, I agree that Gamehendge is too much for Roo. Im going with some folks that arent familiar with Phish and Id like them to be sucked in and I think it will take something a bit more accessible.
I think the late night set will be "special" in one way or another. I mean shit, its a Phish show, they are all special...but I think they will have something extra or a "gimmick" for the late night.

I heard some stuff about 3d goggles?
yeah 80,000 pairs of 3D goggles. Seems like a stretch too me.

The servers a Phantasy tour would actually catch on fire.
PT WOULD catch fire but only on the off chance that just one person at Roo wouldn't have heard Gamehenge before. The thought of 40,000 PTers typing "noob" at once would bring down the internet!

I don't wanna hear politics when I'm trying to get away from all that bullshit. And if you are gonna do the whole politics and music thing...be like headcount. They don't get personal with it.

Karma
That really kind of pissed me off how so many people were complaining about that. It's like, "how dare he say anything about his political beliefs, we want music, not talking". I thought what he said was really moving, relevant, and important. Especially when they did Taps. I got chills up my neck

^^ I don't see it, but this really woudl be truly fantastic.... maybe opening the Sunday night set. By that time, all the non-Phish fans will have likely departed, so nobody who doesn't want to hear it will have to.

Nothing like going to the bathroom at the office and then coming back to a see a newly delivered envelope containing Phish tickets sitting on your desk. Holy f*ck am I excited.
